Sandman is arguably one of comics’ greatest series. This is one of its finest issues. In this issue we’re introduced to Hob Gadling. It’s 1389 and he’s boasting that he’ll never die. Morpheus (Sandman) and his kid sister Death overhear these boasts and challenge Hob Gadling that if that’s true, they’ll meet him in this very tavern in 100 years…and so the story goes.
